Best Trails in Morningside Nature Center

This is a great place to view alligators, birds, bison, horses, and others wildlife. The trail is part boardwalk and part grassy path. There is a tower at the end for long range viewing. We walked the trail with kids....no problem. Gators were PLENTIFUL and close. Horses were even closer, right on the trail. The bison were a distance away when we were there but it was clear that they frequent the trail as well. This is a wonderful place! The only negative I could come up with is that the parking area can get really full and you may have to park along the entry road and walk in. Not a big deal at all.

Really a nature walk. The raised boardwalk by the water was closed for construction. 4 stars if that feature was open. The bypass doesn't offer much in comparison. We didn't see any bison/ horses but that's probably a time of day issue. The potential for an amazing experience is there so we'll visit whenever we're in town.

Alligators, wild horses, flowers... beautiful small easy trail... you can bike all the way to the entrance and hike the rest of the way. Sometimes you can get stuck because a huge gator is sleeping in front of you.

Very easy trail, great for children, beginners and elders. Trail is part paved, part boardwalk and mostly dirt road, not for those looking for wilderness trails. Great birding.
Great for wildlife, Bison, Wild Horses, Alligators and many small animals. Much to see. little shade, bring sun screen. Three miles out and back with many stops.
